And now the man from American Fork, Utah goes back home to play before his family and friends! Way to go Tanner! The snow and ice up north will keep me here at home in Southern Utah but, I’ll be following on the live stream. BYU will overlook our 7-1 Evansville Aces and we will spank the Cougar’s arses in the Marriott Center Tuesday night!

The FG percentage won't always be this good but I don't think it was ever close to this good the last couple of years. There is also less flinging toward the rim with the shot clock nearing 0:00. These guys can all shoot. I am still livid over the way the refs take this game out of the players' hands and make it about themselves. FFS. hand checking is how they play now. This ain't the 1950s. And when somebody gets whacked in the head on a layup, it actually IS a foul. Feel free to call that one.

Thank you Aces! Now I have something to look forward to come Tuesday night! The BYU Cougars are 7-0 and about to be card-sharked by the Evansville Purple Aces! What, too cocky? Au contrarie mon frere! The spirit of Jerry Sloan will be in attendance @ the Marriott Center. Go Aces!

NOW can we get 7k+ next home game? Sheesh, these Aces will respond with greater energy if you just get back to watching UEMBB in person @ the fabulous Ford Center! And just think what a boost for downtown businesses if crowds return in force! Go Aces!

Won it at the FT line. When is the last time we could say that. Also will Kenpom reward us or screw us again.

The bald ref screwed us the entire game.. He is horrible and should be reported to the league office. And I rarely complain of refereeing. His bias was blatant.
It’s always good when you overcome that and several mental mistakes to learn lessons and STILL win.

Congratulations Aces for staying tough for the win! This is Definitely a different Aces Team. One question...Cam Haffner makes the first two Aces baskets, both 3 pointers and then only plays for 17 minutes. Will someone help me understand that?
